Sega Model 3 hide mouse cursor
« on: January 05, 2015, 06:21:19 pm »
I can't seem to hide the mouse cursor when playing the lost world in windowed mode.

Tried using Nomousy but that didn't work.

keep in mind this is windowed mode, not fullscreen, I do not want to run it in fullscreen.

any help would be appreciated.

what happens when using nomousey?

Does the mouse disappear when you launch nomousey without launching model 3?
Does it reappear when Model 3 launches?

Is the mouse pointer only appearing inside the Model 3 window?
If so, I guess the reason nomousey isn't working is because that's not the system mouse.

when using nomousy: the mouse does NOT appear outside the model 3 window, but inside the model 3 window the mouse appears, the pointer is a black one so it's different to the system pointer which is white.

If the black pointer icon is located in the model 3 folder somewhere, you could swap it out with a transparent one.
I don't know if it is or isn't, but that's the first thing I would try.

yeah I can't see an icon anywhere in the folders.

seems odd though you would think the mouse pointer would be disabled for people wanting to play light gun games without a crosshair.

I have SuperModel UI as well and have been looking in all the options but I don't see one.

looking in windows/cursor folder I see the black arrow Icons that are used by sega model 3, I tried changing them but windows wont let me, tried changing permissions on the folder but I get access denied from windows.

Any other advice?

Not sure how active the Model 3 forums are, but you could try posting there.
Maybe someone who compiles their own can help you out.

lol need to wait a couple of weeks apparently.

they have a long and manual registration process anyway as they get spambots.

Thanks for help anyway.

funnily enough MUGEN works in the exact same way, has its own mouse pointer inside the window adn its black, and using no mousy it's still there.
